Title: Squash Swap
Post by: princescruffster on March 13, 2007, 14:42:55
Think I was a bit ambitious thinking I could grow butternut squash or crown prince in a container. :-\

Could anyone swap me some Patty Pan squash instead or another bush type.

Many thanks

I have custard white from seeds of Italy to swop if your interested. Early vigorous plant producing med sized firm, flat white fruits.

That's great.  I've never done this before.  What happens next?

princescruffster, you can grow squashes in a container provided it is large enough. I grow some of mine in galvanized dustbins with holes knocked in the bottom and it is very successful ;)
